That “work from wherever” life has quickly become the norm. In fact, 56% of workers in the U.S. have jobs that are compatible with working from home. So does that mean you get to live in your pajamas all day? Not exactly. I believe that you should get yourself dressed every day even if you…

I’m kind of a business nerd and spend a lot of time with top-performers (none of which are in the fashion industry). Since I’m the “token fashion girl” I get asked a lot of questions about style and my job as a personal stylist. I also ask a lot of questions. Like, “How has style…

A big part of my job is meeting with clients. My clients come from all walks of life. I have super buttoned-up professional clients who run major corporations and laid back stay-at-home moms who rock jeans on the daily. It’s important that I make every single client I meet with feel comfortable and confident in…

A topic that is guaranteed to get me fired up is job interview attire. As a business owner, I’ve had quite a few prospects sitting on the other side of my desk in hopes of gaining employment. You’d think that since I work in the fashion industry people would step it up around me….

These days it seems that everyone is trying to chug down their personal version of the fountain of youth. Looking “old” has become the ultimate loser way to be viewed. To me, that’s unfortunate because to me making it another year in this crazy world is pretty awesome, but I digress … Looking older than…

Living and working in a fully styled environment has been ingrained in me since I was a child. My mom would (and still does) constantly decorate and redecorate the house. I remember thinking, “Didn’t you just do re-do this room??” Now as an adult, I see the need to change my surroundings was passed down…

I used to take great pride in being able to do everything myself. In my eyes, getting help was for the birds. Boy was I wrong. After years and years of muscling my way through life, I crashed. You see I am the type of girl who will keep driving forward even if there is…
